I have many PAD loves...at this time there is probably over a few dozen or so on my radar, didn't want to bore anyone with all the postings ;-) I better start making briar pipes again and try to stop some of this PAD
I just re-finished an old briar poker I made myself over a year ago and she is smoking pretty good...have to perhaps tool-up this coming x-mas...I already put the request in for some new toys (drill-press, sander, saw, etc. :D
Made this one a year ago or so with only a hand-drill, Dremel, file and some sand paper...you want to know how tough briar really is...make a pipe from a block of briar this way...you will find out
